Abstract

There are many different religions in the world. Religions try to answer important but mysterious questions like “Where did the world come from?” or “What happens to us after we die?” All religions teach people to be good and to help each other. On the other side, science refers to a system of acquiring knowledge. This system uses its method to describe natural phenomena from classical times to the advent of the modern era; natural science was gradually specialized to its current domain. In this article, I tried to find out the possibility of relationship between religion and science. There are four approaches which science and religion can be related to each other, incompatibility, confirmation, complement and two ways of stating a fact. The majority of man’s problems have arisen, because of his disbelieving in religions and missing them. It is concluded that it is possible religion and science converge in the future world, and their convergence would bring lasting peace and happiness to humanity. Therefore man’s need for religion has not terminated.
